The hardware ID may be incorrect on the LADDR input. The required ID is the one used by the telegram - not the ID of the drive. For Startdrive, this can be found in the device view by going to Properties > General > Telegram configuration > [device name] > Start address. For drives not configured with Startdive, this can be found in the device view byhighlighting the row of the telemgra in Device overview, then navigate to Properties > General > Hardware identifier.

300% rated torque for 300ms in 10sec

The Motor Brake Cable can be attached directly to the 400V version of the V90. The 200 V version requires an external relay to connect the motor brake cable. The relay must be connected via the setpoint cable for the SINAMICS V90 pulse train version and via I/O cable for the SINAMICS V90 PROFINET version. I/O cable is necessary for the brake control of the SINAMICS V90 PROFINET 200 V version, and for applications requiring additional DI/DO in addition to PROFINET communication.

For both power and signal motor cables, up to 20m sizes are available from Siemens. The maximum permissible length for custom cables is 30m.

Startdrive or V-Assitant can be used to configure the V90
